Explanation of Responses:
( 1 )Includes shares represented by Company stock fund units acquired under the Company Savings Plan since the date last reported for this person based on information furnished by the Plan Administrator as of 12/31/2014. The number of stock fund units represented by the balance of the participant's Company stock fund account may not exactly equal the number of stock fund units represented by a prior balance due to variance in the proportion of uninvested cash held in the reference fund used to determine unit values of the Company stock fund under the Plan.
( 2 )Price reported in column 4 is a weighted average price. Shares sold at prices ranging from $115.5406 to $115.6110. The reporting person undertakes to provide to the Company, any shareowners of the Company and the staff of the SEC, upon request, full information regarding the number of shares sold at each separate price.
( 3 )Includes 660 shares held by the Company to implement restrictions on transfer unless and until certain conditions are met.

Reminder: Report on a separate line for each class of securities beneficially owned directly or indirectly.
